We established four hybridoma cell lines producing monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against 14-3-3 proteins. Immunoblot analysis revealed that epsilon and gamma isoforms were specifically increased in premortem cerebrospinal fluid samples from patients with sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Furthermore, dot immunoblot analysis showed that MAbs were more specific for native antigen than polyclonal antibodies were.
